Can Someone Who Is Not The Fundraiser Fill in GivePanel's ''Request Fundraiser Details with On-page Message'' Type Form?

GivePanel gives you the ability to create dynamic data capture forms for each fundraiser.
​
You may be asking the question - can anyone fill in the form?
​

The technical answer is yes - there is nothing stopping anyone from filling in the form.

However, in practice, this rarely happens. Why? For the following reasons:

  1. GivePanel pre-fills and "locks" (makes read-only) the Facebook name field in the form. It would be unusual for someone to fill in a form that does not have their name in it.

  2. When someone fills in the fundraiser data capture form we lock it so that only one person can ever use it.

  3. When you post a message with a form on the fundraiser's Facebook page they get a notification on Facebook - no one else does.

  4. The reality is that not many people are visiting the fundraiser's Facebook page anyway.

If you feel this has happened to one of your fundraisers, please email [email protected] or contact support using the support web widget at the bottom right hand side of your account and include the URL of the fundraiser. We can remove the data for you and unlock the form.
